I guess most people aren’t totally ecstatically happy when they say that but I am . I have been feeling a bit hormonal, hehehe. I have been feeling a bit more emotional, a bit more moody, a bit more like the old me. and I couldn’t be happier about it.
I have noticed how lately Rodrigo has been paying particular attention to children, noticing them, noticing how there parents are being with them. all the cute things that they do. He is going to be such an amazing father.
I was in conversation with another woman who had gone through a lot to get pregnant and we both had said we joked to our husbands about how our children would never be able to say that they were not wanted. Hopefully they will always know what we did to bring then into this world and what other people did to help us. Because we loved them so much even before they were here.
sometimes I imagine myself somewhere in a park perhaps watching them play, worrying but tring to let them venture out on their own. I imagine laughter and playfulness. I can already feel how much love there is inside of me to give to them. what I would teach them, whatI would learn from them. this is definitely an adventure i am ready for. I know there are sleepless nights and more dirty diapers than I could ever imagine, but none of that scares me. I am definitely ready to be a Mom.

joy,
you deserve it.
you will be an amazing mom! I cannot imagine my life without my children. It is amazing at how completely different boys are from girls, there is an 8 year difference between my two, my 3 year old daughter just amazes me every day……everything is so different from when my son was her age, her mannerisms, just her in general. It is truly amazing, and you will appreciate it even more than most. I would say..enjoy the nights you are able to sleep now, and being able to do things by yourself while you are trying….you will miss them when they are gone, but they will not compare to being a mom, nothing ever will. I wish you all the luck in the world
